Suspects In Brutal Livermore Stabbing Delay Entering Plea

DUBLIN (KPIX 5) — The two suspects accused of stabbing a 19-year-old Tracy woman and leaving her for dead at the side of a rural road in Livermore were in court Thursday, but delayed entering their plea.

19-year-old Daniel Gross and 25-year-old Melissa Leonardo were arrested Monday afternoon, just hours after Tracy resident Lizette Cuesta died from her wounds.

A driver found Cuesta just off Tesla Road in a remote part of unincorporated Livermore. Investigators believe she was able to crawl 100 yards on her stomach before being found.
